Guest guest Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 COME TO ME I want only Thee, my Lord. When the senses hiss and drag me, Come to me and crush them. When I am overworked and tired, Come to me with Thy peace and harmony. When my mind becomes turbulent, Come to me with Thy yoga power, And still this boisterous mind. When desires and cravings attack me, Come to me with Thy light and grace. When fear overpowers me, Come to me with Thy courage. When avidya (ignorance) tries to overwhelm me, Come to me with Thy supreme wisdom. ---Thus sayeth Sivananda SECRET OF LOVE Subtle and profound is the path of love. It is like the edge of a sharp razor. But the true lover treads it easily. His grace renders his path smooth. There is no asking or bargaining there, It is all sacrifice and selfsurrender. It is the outpouring of the heart's love At the lotus feet of the Lord. Egoism is burnt in the fire of love, Desires are destroyed in the flame of love. Two have become one now. The lover plunges himself In the ocean of divine love, He immerses himself In the sea of divine joy. He offers his all in the Lord's service, His tan (body), man (mind), dhan (wealth) This is the secret of this love. ---Thus sayeth Sivananda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
